Swedish-born Indian, Daniel Chopra shot four-under to be

tied third. "I was trying to break 50 (that is under) and I came close. I am happy with the way it went but most importantly it was fun playing alongside Shamim Khan, Rashid (Khan) and David Howell," Chopra said. Scott Hend, who shot four-under for Maharashtra 59ers, said,"I struggled a bit initially with a lost ball and then a three-putt. Then my teammate Ashok (Kumar), who has had some experience of this course, helped me read the greens, which I was finding difficult to begin with. Then I ended fine to come back with four-under." Anirban Lahiri of Shubhkamna UP Eagles had a fine four-under, but felt that he could have been at least three to four better. "I had a lot of lip-outs and misses. I felt I could have gone really low." Similar was the reaction from Simon Dyson of Colombo 6�s. "I missed so many shots out there. I hope I can hole a few more putts tomorrow." Uttarakhand Lions' Darren Clarke, one of the top attractions and Maharashtra 59ers star, Angel Cabrera, shot three-under each as did Wital See Punjab Lancers' Gaganjeet Bhullar. Asked about the course, Ganjee said,"They have made a scoring course. It's always good to see birdies. I was feeding Johan (Edfors) and he was feeding me." And about the 30 seconds-rule for golfers to execute their shots, Gangjee said,"30 seconds is very close. I am a fast player� I am quick on the ball anyway, so it's not a problem for me. I don't think it's a very strict rule. They wanted it to be a quick game."
